I love this
I live alone and if I didn’t check in, it will alert who I’ve chosen, and I will get assistance. The happy quote you get when checking in is a cute bonus.
Terrific App That Enhances My Life
Years ago, I was a police Lieutenant for the Miami Dade sheriffs office. Fast-forward a bunch of years, I was single, a survivor of a stroke and living by myself. I was living by myself and looking for humans to do essentially what this app does, but I could not find one. I did, however, find this app. And I am delighted that I did. It does everything I need it to do without relying on the human element that could be problematic. Instead, it is flawless and gives me peace of mind knowing that every day I’m checked on and if need be, they can call a neighbor or fire and rescue. I will definitely share this information with family and friends. Thank you!

Thanks
Thank you Snug for providing a truly useful app.
SNUG saves the day
I was so worried I’d die and nobody would know. Or fall and lay there. SNUG is my friend and takes big pressure off my mind.
Peace of Mind
My husband died in his sleep and now my children worry about me. This is a passive way of letting them know I’m okay.
Excellent
Easy to use, gives family peace of mind and keeps me alert.
This is a Must for anyone who lives by themselves
Regardless of age or health; I am convinced this app is necessary for a person who lives by themself. I missed once a check-in and text from
Snug and a dispatcher called me to confirm
I was OK. Another time I missed both, and within 30 mins of missing the check-in the local police was at my door to do a welfare check. My emergency contact was also notified. This service really works and they treat a missed check-in with extreme urgency. I feel so much safer since I got this app.

Reminders too easy to miss.
I’ve been trying to application out and the free plan seems pretty basic. My biggest complaint is that the reminder alert to check in is hard to notice. It’s a very innocuous tone, which some people may like, but it’s not enough to get my attention. Sure enough… I missed a check-in today because my phone was sitting in the room next-door and I wasn’t thinking about it. The ways to solve this would be an option to select a much Lauder alert, or even via text message. There are other applications that do just that and so I will be looking around.

Game-changer
I would just like to thank the person who came up with this simple and powerful app. It not only gives me great peace of mind to know I’ve put this safety measure in place, it is also a delightful way to help start my day. I have recommended Snug to several people in my circle, especially those who work with vulnerable populations or who have loved ones who could use this simple, elegant, extra layer of support.

Snug
Love this app. Makes me feel safer that my emergency contacts will be notified if I don’t check in. Love the morning inspiration quotes-gets my day started on a positive note.
A little extra protection .
I have many animals, dogs , chickens , and a mini donkey & pony, God forbid if I would die suddenly, no one would know. My pets are truly my lifeline. Snug is a brilliant service for people who live alone.
What a comfort!
I’m a young 64- I walk 4 miles daily and enjoy excellent health. That said, I’m also in an animal rescue and have 6-8 dogs in my home all year round. If something happens to me, how long might the pups be without food and water? Snug was the answer! There’s someone looking out for “us”!
The daily quotes are AWFUL!
AN ABSOLUTE JOKE! Mis-attributed, repeated endlessly. Today, she has misspelled Sheryl Crow's name. When I check in, I turn the phone away from me to save myself - it's one less cringe in my day. Other than that, I like the service.
Best thing ever!
I check in each morning because I live alone. If I die in the night and don't check in, someone will rescue my dog!
Very convenient
Before Snug, I had a system in place where I would text my two sisters every morning and they would have to text me back. We’re three older females that live alone. We love our independence and living alone. We have known people in the past who died and were not found for several days after. I personally have three small dogs and are concerned more about their needs if something were to happen to me. I love Snug. It’s very much needed and appreciated. Whenever I come across somebody in a similar situation, I tell them about this website. I also enjoy reading the quotes they post every morning with my Wellness Check.

Safety
My sister does not worry that something happened to me since we live 1.5 hour away from each other. SNUG gives her peace of mind.
Simply perfect
This app is so simple and perfect. It was exactly what I needed. Living alone and working remotely my fear is some would happen and nobody would know for days. This gives me and my friends peace of mind that I’m good today. I’m only using the free version right now because I really only need one check-in per day, but I would consider the paid version if an optional feature was added that alerts my person on the other end each time I check in. Just one little tweak to the interface. As it is now they only know if I don’t check in, but I think it would be lovely to be a tiny bit more interactive and they got a text every day that said “X just checked in”.

It’s a safe feeling when you sign in everyday.
Better than Are You Dead App
I tried the Are You Dead app first but it was as gruesome as its name. I deleted that app but didn’t know to delete my emergency contacts first. So they started getting daily notices I hadn’t checked in. Getting that fixed was a nightmare because the app’s customer service was not responsive to my first five pleas for help. In contrast, I had response in a couple of hours to a question I had about this app and I love its sunny landing screen, upbeat language, and the daily inspiring quote. After thought, I opted for the paid version to have the phone calls from Snug operators first, before my emergency contacts are notified that I’ve missed a check-in. I also like that Snug can notify my local emergency responders. Both paid and free versions act if you miss one check-in, versus Are You Dead, which waits until you miss two check-ins. I want quicker help for my dog if I’m unresponsive. Finally, if you do the math, the cost of the paid version is 50 cents or so a day. I’m now forgetting the cost: it’s above $100. The daily cost is worth it for the peace of mind I receive in return.

Wonderful Service for Those Living Alone
I am retired, live alone and have health issues, but am still able to care for myself. But I have nobody regularly checking on me. I am very busy, but my hobbies and pastimes tend to be done indoors, so neighbors are used to not seeing me outside for days at a stretch. Therefore, if I should ever fall or not be able to phone for help for any reason (Heaven forbid!), nobody would “miss me” for a long while. There are regular texts between me and several close relatives, but even they would not think anything was wrong if a week went by without hearing from me for a “catch-up.”
So - Enter SNUG! What a wonderful service ( and the Basic Plan, which is all I need at present, is so helpful, easy-to-use, and FREE). I just set the alarm on my phone for a few
minutes before the daily check-on time I have given Snug. At this chosen time, I open my Snug App, check the box and immediately receive a cheery message on the same screen, saying I’m good for another day!
And if I DON’T check the box within a few minutes, Snug notifies the back-up person I have provided, who will then check on me .
So convenient, comforting and easy-peasy to use!
